Mozilla UI Spoofing Vulnerability

    I've lost faith in Secunia, they seem to love pointing out security holes in open-source products. So I just ignore them now.

    If you're using open source software then a site that loves pointing out security holes in those programs sounds very useful. If you're not using open source then I can see your point.

    Nice. However, it's shit.slashdot.org which should use the shitty color scheme
